A coach who wants to keep the respect of the locker room has to play Chad. How can you explain to the men who want to win, that the QB who has performed better is going to be benched.

Easy, the veteran qb of the two is 0-4 and scored only 6 point last week against a depleted charger's team at home.

And easily kicked the crap out of Blaine Gabbert in the QB competition.You really dont think players didnt notice this?

Henne's playing better, but just barely.  Gabbert throws better, but much too often to the other team.

 

They actually suck in different ways.

 

Which is why I stick by what I said earlier in the thread.  Barring some miraculous Henne performance in London, we'll see Gabbert after the bye.

Gabbert throws better when he's not throwing to the other team, checking it down, or just not throwing it and taking a sack or scrambling away from phantom pressure--

 

I need to take a breath before I continue but you get the point.

THERE IS A SKELETON INSIDE OF YOU.

 

RIGHT NOW. THIS IS NOT A JOKE.

Gabbert isn't starting another game this season.

Henne is playing lightyears ahead of Gabbert, and Henne is god awful.


Gabbert is just a special, once in a lifetime type of suck.


Gabbert wont see the field again. Maybe not even barring injury, to tell you the truth.

Exactly.

 

What kind of message do you send to the other players if they keep putting garbage gabbert back out there.  The guy isn't a leader.

---

NUFF SAID

---

I disagree. Playing him gives us the best chance at that #1 pick.

 

How ironic will it be when we beat the Colts in December to take us out of the #1 pick when beating the Colts in December in 2011 guaranteed them Andrew Luck.

This would not surprise me one bit.

You mean his career right?

Man... his historically bad performances will be missed. Like seriously, we witnessed one of the worst NFL QB careers. Decades from now, he will still be remembered.

Exactly.

Well, what kind of message you're sending to the team if henne keeps losing and he's suppose to be the vetreran of the 2 qb's. You answer this question how in the world is henne a leader when he is 1 and 12 as a starter for this team including playing against bad teams. I guess the message will be that we can go 0 and 16 folks but as long as henne keep giving us garbage yard we'll be fine. Boy, our situation at the qb situation is pathetic and we're aguing which two bad qb's should play.

Ummm the message you would be sending is that you will get the job if you beat the man in front of you.


Or you could say to your team " We dont care about competition, we will start who we want to start, regardless of how you perform."


Brilliant!!! That'll make Jacksonville a hot destination for football players.


The sad thing is, no matter how pathetic our QB situation is, there is no argument who is better of the two.

well, how excactly henne beating gabbert because of the garbage yards he's putting up at the end of games? We're as a team are still getting blown out of games with both guys and for him to be a veteran qb henne should be not only winning games for this team but scoring more that 11pts raiders, 17pts seahawks, 20pts which the defense gave him seven of them 20 points during the bronco's  game and 6 points last week during his starts as the qb of our team.

I believe Blaine Gibblet should be the Jaguars 1st Male Cheerleader... he looks pretty to all the ladies, but cantt play QB.... Problem Solved!!!

I ain't no monkey... I'm an ape.

Real mature to call a football player a male cheerleader. I bet you won't say that to his face because you're just so much more of a man than him. You're my definition of a keyboard thug.

I would totaly say it to his face.... he looks like a girl out there... give him some pompoms and a mini-skirt...

1. Gabbert is not only a veteran as well, but was drafted top 10 in the draft. Lets not talk about what people " should " be doing here...


2. You think Gabbert has never been part of a blowout before? What does it say about him if he cant even put up garbage yards?Thank god he had Justin Blackmon the one game the opponent didnt game plan for him.


Hes terrible. He is so terrible, Chad Henne is lightyears ahead of him, and Chad Henne is dreadful.

Well, they won weeks 15 & 16 because they "could". There was cushion between the Colts and the closest competition for the #1 pick at that point. They played lights out good those weeks, IIRC they even beat the Texans, who were playing great up to that point.

Yep. The coaching staff had been stifling those stud QBs Curtis Painter and Dan Orlovsky up to that point.
